Thank you, Ann! We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to hosting you again!
Beautiful property just steps from the beach, there was everything we needed for a wonderful family week at the beach. Lots of beach toys, chairs, canopies etc were available in the garage. The kitchen let us make quick lunches or late dinners. The golf cart made bringing supplies over to the beach easy. Check in and out was straight forward.

Thank you for the lovely review, Michael! We’re so happy to hear your family had everything you needed for a great beach week. Glad the golf cart and beach gear came in handy. You're welcome back anytime!
The house was great - but the location was what made our trip perfect. The (lack of) distance to the beach and pool made it easy for us to move back and forth based on the kids ever-changing wants. Will definitely be back!

Thank you! It was our pleasure to host you and we look forward to your next stay with us!
The house was very clean and had a good stock of items in the kitchen. We felt very secured in the house and the host was available and attentive for any issues.It would have been beneficial to know the majority of rooms were downstairs and the living room and kitchen were upstairs. There was a good size backyard but not a lot of grass spots for our dog to go to.There also needs to be a mat or something in place on the back patio where the shower is because the tile becomes very slippery.The location was perfect for beach access. We did not have to go far, and the golf cart was perfect to transport everyone and the beach gear.

Feliciano, we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at Paradise Isle. This property is a gem. We look forward to your next stay and serving you again!
4652 Paradise Isle met every single expectation of our family! Beautiful home, very spacious, and everything was available that we needed. This is the first time we have never had a beachfront view, but we never missed a beat. The convenience of the golf cart, the pool right across the street, and the beach access being literally a 2 minute walk was great. We had one small issue with the hot water heater but cannot say enough about the maintenance guys. They were there within the hour and it was fixed quickly. Would DEFINITELY recommend this home for a family stay, and we will be back!

Hi Ann, thanks so much for staying with us and for that wonderful review! We're glad the golf cart, pool, and beach access added to your enjoyment, and we appreciate your understanding regarding the small issue with the hot water heater. We're happy our maintenance team could resolve it promptly for you. We would love to host your family again in the future! Thank you for recommending our home, and we look forward to welcoming you back!
The home was cozy and inviting. It felt like "home". I loved the bedrooms on the lower level being separate from the main living space. This is great for the kids to have their own space. The living room is perfect for taking naps on the comfortable sectional and I loved the gas range in the kitchen. The covered patios are a relaxing space to eat dinner and take in the view of the gulf. The main suite in the house is spacious with a luxury ensuite bathroom with jetted tub and walk in shower. And the large closet was perfect for storing our belongings. It is an easy short, walk right over to the beach. The heated community pool was just a few second walk away. I would definitely stay here again!

First time in Destin and my family loved it. This property was beautiful!! The pictures are exactly as you see them on line. The chairs at the dinning room table were a bit uncomfortable as I could feel the wood while sitting. The property only allows for 12 adults I wish it was more as we only had four adults and 6 kids. The walk to the beach was short our family was at the beach everyday!!! Loved the bar area in the home and the patio as well. Beds were super comfortable and the bathrooms are a good size. Overall I would give this home a nine star rating. It’s expensive but my kids enjoyed it so that’s all that matters to me!!

House was beautiful but inside wasn’t very clean. Had to call pest control multiple times due to a ton of roaches. Balconies need cleaned, bottom of your feet are pitch black after walking out on them. Busted shower head in the master bedroom that shot water all up the wall. Bedroom door handle had no screw holding it together, fell right off the door.
Destin Dreamers was very responsive and helpful.

All homes are treated monthly for pests and insects as well. If anything slips through the cracks our team is local and here to address any reported issues immediately.
We truly value your input as we strive to continually enhance our services providing the 5 star experience our guests deserve.
We had a great trip in Miramar! The location of the property was fantastic! Very close to the beach and pool! The house overall was nice but could use a few things. The outdoor area could use some better seating options. The grill was on the first floor and the kitchen is on the 2nd which seemed a bit strange. While we were there, the ice maker did not work but the management team was great about bringing us as much ice as needed! We did have consistent issues with our golf cart throughout our stay. Management called maintenance out a few times to take a look but did not fix it. After then requesting a new golf cart, management was quick to help make that happen! In our last evening we noticed a leak in the ceiling of one of the bedrooms. We notified Destin Dreamers and they said they would be sending maintenance the next day to take a look. Overall, our stay was nice and we had plenty of room for our family of 5. Management was quick to respond to any/all issues that we had! We absolutely LOVE Destin beaches!

Thanks for staying with us, D'Ann! We're glad to hear you had a great trip in Miramar and enjoyed the location near the beach and pool. It’s great to know our management team was able to help with ice and address the golf cart concerns quickly. We aim for a 5-star experience for all our guests, so we apologize for the leak you noticed and appreciate your understanding as we work to resolve it. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we hope to welcome you back for another stay to enjoy the beautiful Destin beaches!
Early on the day of our arrival, the property manager made us aware of a problem with the upstairs AC. We were given three quite reasonable options. By the time of our arrival, three temporary, portable, heavy duty and professionally installed AC units were in place on the second floor. By mid-afternoon the next day, a complete new central AC unit had been installed for the second floor. Excellent action by the manager to quickly remedy the issue.The next day we noticed that the tail lights on the golf cart were not working properly. This issue, too, was very quickly fixed.We were very pleased with all aspects of this house. There were many extra items in the garage, such as boogie boards, beach chairs and two 10’x10’ canopies for use on the beach. The property was very clean and well appointed. We did not have a chance to use the club facilities across the street. But, they looked very nice.Wonderful property, wonderful location, excellent communications. We look forward to being guests again, soon. Thank you all for making our vacation return to Destin all we had hoped it would be.
